GEARBOX

Baratza introduced their second generation Gearbox in 2012 (GB 2.0). In addition to decreasing noise, this introduction brought with it considerably enhanced durability and strength of the drive transmission. Not only did they add a new drive shaft, motor plate and bushings, this change also includes a drive gear made-of 15% glass filled thermo-plastic, which is much more quiet when compared to previous metal equipment and is more shock resistant. Through the Encore’s thorough testing procedure, stainless screws were placed in to the burrs, and in every situation the motor, gears and burrs stopped instantaneously, the (automatically-resettable) thermal cutout was triggered, and the gears were undamaged.

GRIND ADJUSTMENT

With 40 variations you’re able to easily adjust from fine to course. The grind range is from 250 to 1200 microns.

GRINDS LEFT IN THE GRINDER

To ensure freshness, the Encore’s design minimizes the grounds left inside the grinder.

BREWING METHODS

The Encore is a superb grinder for espresso and manual brewing.

MOTOR

A robust, high-torque motor efficiently drives the burrs. This Motor turns slowly resulting in cool, quiet operation and permits long running duty-cycles. The circuitry has an auto-reset thermal cuttoff switch.

CALIBRATION

A forward-thinking burr calibration system guarantees each grinder has the full-range of grind. The grinders might be user adjusted, if required.

SPEED CONTROL

With distinctive speed control, the Baratza Encore works on the mix of gear and electronic rate decline to control the rotation of the burr to 450 RPM. This slow-speed decreases sound, temperature, and static generation within the grinder. Additionally, it ensures that the beans give flow smoothly into the burrs.
